Imagine, a marble clad Metro Station! I can still see the patterns of prehistoric fossils on some of the slabs, reportedly shipped from the Ural Mountains. Simply awesome!

Good graphitti!
A gem shot of railway station.
Perfect geometry.

excellent perspective, i like it, congratulations for this great shot

wow.... nice shot!!! i wish our subway here look like this one ( i live in montreal). Cyrrilic writting in 3-d is very cool and station seems to be very clean and well light.. i like colors, the depth (of course!) of this picture. Great shot!
the note about prehistoric fossils is very interesting , i didn't knew that.. in fact, i didn't knew that moscow metro was that nice...(as i take the subway here every morning for the job, i can tell our metro is nothing compared to yours!)

Hi Weichun
I like your way of catching this "Park of Victory" station. Even that this is just static concret, it give sense of moston and high speed. Congratulations
cheers

It is a wonderful piece of design - especially for something as functional as a subway/metro station. I wish our stations looked like that (I wish we had a metro!).

Good viewpoint - the tunnel effect is great with all the lines converging in the distance.

Fantastic photo with flawless composition.

This is particularly good because you can get a very hefty fine from police in Moscow for photographing the subway stations!

fantastic photo! and lights!

Hi Weichun,

Beautiful station with nice warm colors and good light there. Looks clean too, even on the track. Very sharp picture and good colors. Thanks, GIlbert

Hi Weichun,
Wonderful graphics and DOF. It's so empty at this station...must have been very early or very late in the day....which is perfect for photography.
